Immunopathogenesis of atherosclerosis: endotoxin accelerates atherosclerosis in rabbits on hypercholesterolemic diet.

2001

Background—On the basis of our concept that atherosclerosis has an immunopathological background, we tested whether activation of the innate immune system influences its progression.Methods and Results—Hypercholesterolemic (0.5% wt/wt diet) rabbits received either repeated intravenous injections of endotoxin (Escherichia colilipopolysaccharide 1.25 to 2.5 μg, once per week) or a self-limiting cutaneousStaphylococcus aureusinfection with or without a quinolone antibiotic. Measured laboratory parameters, including LDL and HDL cholesterols, were similar in the different groups of hypercholesterolemic animals. All endotoxin-treated animals developed transient episodes of fever after endotoxin a…

Atherosklerose - Progression durch unspezifische Aktivierung des Immunsystems

2002

Die Atherosklerose ist eine Erkrankung mittelgroser und groser Gefase. Fruhlasionen sind gekennzeichnet durch die Adhasion und subendotheliale Emigration zirkulierender Monozyten, die als Schaumzellen Wegbereiterfunktionen fur spatere komplexe Plaques ubernehmen. Solche Lasionen sind bereits im Kindes- und Jugendalter zu finden. Der nachste Schritt der Atherogenese ist die Proliferation glattmuskularer Zellen innerhalb der Intima und der Media und damit ein gradueller Verschluss des Gefaslumens. Fibroblastare Zellen tragen ferner zum Lasionswachstum bei, indem sie exzessive Mengen extrazellularer Matrix bilden. Derartige Lasionen sind meist klinisch inapparent. In einer nachsten Phase kommt…
